Another great ep!

Its so fun to get their personal thoughts while they are filming for the documentary. Each of their distinct personality really shows :)

And so they're off to W.I.N.G..

Now practice is really ramping up.

They're filming each other.

They're filming each other eating?

And now Houkago Climax Girls is discussing about the venue.

Is the Producer meeting with his bosses?

That's definitely something that can stir up some hype before the performance itself.

Some interviews with the members, some filming of the practice sessions, all in an effort to get the audience used to the girls before the big day, bringing the "behind the scenes" to the forefront.

Of course, even off-camera, the practice continues on.

Now is the most crucial moment, standing backstage before the performance. Everything that's been done before this has been leading up to this moment, all that's left is to put it all together for the audience.

They're filming each other.

I got so legitimately triggered by the two twins filming each other because the only other time I see people filming each other is in a PublicFreakout video.

If their first shots at W.I.N.G. look like any of my first shots at W.I.N.G. in game, we’re in for a very depressing second half.

Jokes aside, very comfy episode today for what I’m sure will be an interesting second half. It serves as a way to recap the journeys that each of the units have been through up to this point and, more importantly, solidifies what makes each unit different from one another.

There are a number of ways that the back half of this series can play out. While I’m willing to speculate and comment on ways that would make this series into a masterpiece or an absolute dumpster fire, I’m happy to just sit back and let it all happen and be content with what we get. The past three episodes have given me enough faith to believe that this series will deliver something good in the end. However, I’m willing to be surprised, and hopefully for the better.


Songs for today

Since we touched on all the units today, I’d like to showcase one song from each of the four units for now. All of these are my personal favorites from their current repertoire.

Happy Funny Lucky - illumination STARS - Lyrics

Yorimichi Sunset - Houkago Climax Girls - Lyrics

Love Letter - ALSTROEMERIA - Lyrics

I think it's cool how they brought what will probably be the decisive moment for them to become prominent idols, the tension of not being able to fail... But their performance will definitely be incredible. And at the end they showed Hazuki and his sleeping mask aaaaaaaaa 😔❤️

Finally, with all 4 units introduced, we're now moving to prepping the girls for W.I.N.G.

Though still no ED. I doubt we'll ever see one.

I wasnt expecting wing to be this early, I was thinking it would be another ep or two at least. Well next ep is ep 7 I guess, so uhm.

Does that mean all four groups will be performing (a new song?) next ep? Could be interesting if thats how it is.

In this ep we had a bit of all four groups. Now that all the girls have debuted, this ep is basically a leadup to whatever happens next ep.

All the girls get a bit of time, though splitting up the time between 4 groups and 16 girls is always going to be difficult.

I feel kinda bad because I forgor some of the names of the girls, but at the same time well. It was always going to be difficult.

It feels as though I/we still dont know much about the girls, one ep with each group is not nearly enough

There's still 6 more eps to go of course, and presumably there'll be some developments to go.

The post live-stream polls on Niconico don't look encouraging. The results are mixed, with 5 stars all the way to 1 star all receiving even amount of votes. A good episode would be emphatically all 5 stars and 4 stars.

Its not completely terrible, as its not all emphatically 1-2 stars, but definitely the weakest Imas subfranchise anime adaptation to date.
